Yes, you may be eligible for a Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP) after completing a marketing program in Canada, if certain conditions are met.

- Your program must be at least 8 months long and offered by a Designated Learning Institution (DLI) eligible for PGWP.
- You must study full-time and apply for the PGWP within 180 days of program completion.
- Starting November 1, 2024, some programs must match specific fields of study to qualify for a PGWP. Not all marketing programs may be eligible; eligibility depends on your program’s Classification of Instructional Program (CIP) code.

PGWP rules are subject to change.
